Patience with ourselves and others is important. You never know what battles people are fighting whether they are in the real world or in their own mind.
A River with No Mouth
An open and desolate plain
Cut asunder as I run
Fingers through the grooves
Across ages that have passed
Lines of this erosion
Stories that I've told
A river with no mouth
A love that grows not old
Pastures long forgotten
Where swords have all been melted
Lost in these caldera
Clanging through caverns deep
Where weary memories wander
Meandering through branches
Pushing these leaves
Hear them bristle in the treetops
And flash across the forests
Neurons like fireflies that lead
A way into forgiveness
A pathway that you need
This is not featureless
The water needles you closer
A voice like ripples wavering
Now a reflection becoming clear
Singing is the way it sinks in
Born under omens, only son
Felt-tip inkblot on the doorstep
Lonely, so all you do is run
Time to nail this to the church door
Missives of failure and of love
And a reminder of tomorrow
Now a rejection's not so cold
There are leaves here changing colors
In this vale a waning sun
Kissing clouds with strawberry valor
Tokens of healing you have done
With muted sadness you remember
That circle of stones and moss
Where the Earth there and the tree roots
Completed the cycle of my soul
Swept up in the hunt
Hungry for the horizon
Answering a call
Set up so that you may run
A final seed is planted
The harvest more than vital
Buried so long underneath
Now breach and reach the sunlight!
When Winter comes calling
Remember you are enough my dear
Abandon every echoed voice of guilt
Tear out every twisted root of fear
Go to that place when doubt descends
Where fires rise and shame is dead
Where that river runs that has no end
My breath still lingers in the wind
A wound once open, mended
More than the sum of scars
With the pain that is transcended
Across ages I have learned
That plain is not eroded
That path is never lost
That river never ending
A love that grows not old
